No bake Oreo pie is one of the most-loved desserts on my whole site, and one bite tells you why. It’s cool, creamy and loaded with Oreo flavor, with chopped cookies in every bite and a buttery Oreo crust. Put one out and watch how fast it goes.

I come back to this Oreo cream pie whenever I need a simple dessert I know everyone will go for, whether it’s a family get-together or a summer party. It’s pretty fail-proof, and anything with Oreos gets attention at my house.

I make the filling for this cookies and cream pie with cream cheese because it gives the light, fluffy whipped topping a little richness. One reader even told me the finished pie tastes like an Oreo cheesecake.

This pie sits on my list of easy no bake desserts, and if you’re planning the whole holiday table, my Thanksgiving desserts list has the rest of it.

HOLIDAY FAVORITE

Why My Holiday Dessert Is Done the Day Before

My oven is working overtime around Thanksgiving and the holidays, so having dessert already sitting in the fridge and ready to go is a huge win. I make this pie the day before, cover it and keep it in the fridge.

Right before dessert, I add the whipped cream swirls and the Oreos on top, so the cookies stay crunchy instead of going soft in the fridge. That’s one whole course off my list before the big day even starts.

How I Keep the Filling Smooth Instead of Lumpy

I let the cream cheese sit out until it’s completely soft before I start, because cold cream cheese leaves little lumps all through the filling. Then I beat it with the powdered sugar until it’s smooth, before anything else goes in the bowl. Once the whipped topping is in, you can’t beat the lumps out anymore.

From there, I fold the whipped topping in by hand with a spatula instead of the mixer, so the filling stays light and fluffy.

What to Buy Before You Start

No bake oreo pie ingredients.
  • Oreos: I use regular Oreos and crush the whole cookie, cream filling and all, because the filling helps hold the crust together. Double Stuf and Thins will change the results, so I stick with the originals. You need 43 Oreos in all, 35 for the crust and filling plus 8 for the top. A family-size package should cover it, and a regular package won’t.
  • Cream cheese: I use full-fat cream cheese because it gives the filling the most flavor. Reduced-fat will still work, but it may not taste as rich.
  • Whipped topping: I use Cool Whip because it’s stable and holds up well in the fridge, and it’s the base of a lot of my Cool Whip desserts. The filling takes 2 cups, which is about two-thirds of an 8-ounce tub, and the rest of the tub goes on top for the swirls. If you’d rather make your own, my stabilized homemade whipped cream works in its place.

How to Make Oreo Pie

Step 1: Press the Oreo Crust Crush the Oreos into fine crumbs, stir in the melted butter and press it into the bottom and up the sides of a standard 9-inch pie plate. I use the bottom of a glass or a flat measuring cup to pack it in evenly, then put the crust in the fridge while I make the filling. A deep-dish plate leaves you short on both crust and filling.Oreo cookie crumb crust pressed into a glass pie dish.

Step 2: Make the Filling Beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar until soft and smooth, then fold in the whipped topping, followed by the chopped Oreos. Leave some of the Oreo pieces a little bigger, and let the tiny crumbs go in too.Chopped Oreo cookies added to creamy pie filling in a glass mixing bowl.

Step 3: Fill and Chill Spoon the filling into the crust, smooth the top and chill the pie for at least an hour before serving.Creamy Oreo pie filling spread evenly over a chocolate cookie crust.

Step 4: Top It Right Before Serving When it’s time for dessert, pipe 8 swirls of whipped topping or whipped cream around the top and set a whole Oreo in each one, so every slice gets its own cookie.Finished Oreo cream pie topped with whipped cream swirls, Oreo cookies, and cookie crumbs.

How to Cut Clean Slices

After an hour in the fridge, this pie is set and ready to slice, but overnight is always going to be better, because the filling firms up more and the slices come out neater. The Oreo crust holds each slice together and still cuts through easily.

For the cleanest cuts, run your knife under hot water or wipe it with a damp cloth between slices.

Easy Ways to Change It Up

Oreo pie is easy to adapt to what you have or what your crowd likes.

Store-bought crust: A store-bought 9-inch chocolate cookie crust works if you want to skip a step. If you’d rather make the crust ahead on its own, my Oreo pie crust post shows how to store it.

Gluten-free Oreos: Gluten-free Oreos work in both the crust and the filling, and one reader who made it gluten-free said you can’t tell the difference.

Other Oreo flavors: Chocolate creme, birthday cake and red velvet Oreos all work with the cookies and cream filling.

A sweeter pie: If you like your desserts on the sweeter side, use a full cup of powdered sugar in the filling.

A pudding layer: Some readers add a layer of chocolate pudding and love it. I haven’t made it that way myself, but if you like that idea, my dirt pie is the Oreo pie I make with pudding in it.

Storing and Freezing Leftovers

Cover leftover pie and keep it in the fridge for up to 4 days.

To freeze it, wrap the pie in plastic wrap without the swirls and Oreos and freeze it for up to 1 month. Thaw it in the fridge, then add the topping fresh before you serve it.

Ingredients
 

Oreo Crust

  • 10 Oreo cookies chopped

Optional garnish

Instructions
 

Oreo Crust

  • Crush the Oreo cookies in a food processor. Or place them in a ziploc bag and bash with a rolling pin.
    25 Oreo cookies
  • Mix the crushed cookies with melted butter.
    5 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • Press into the bottom and up the sides of a 9 inch pie plate. I like to use the bottom of a glass cup for this. 
  •  Place in the fridge as you make the filling. 

Oreo Filling

  • In a large bowl beat the cream cheese and powdered sugar together until soft.
    8 ounces cream cheese, ¾ cup powdered sugar

Jenn’s Notes

Tips:
  • Let the cream cheese come all the way to room temperature and beat it smooth with the powdered sugar before the whipped topping goes in, so the filling has no lumps.
  • Crush the whole Oreo, cream filling and all. The filling helps hold the crust together.
  • Use a standard 9-inch pie plate. A deep-dish plate leaves you short on crust and filling.
  • You need 43 Oreos in all. A family-size package should cover the crust, the filling and the garnish.
Storage:
Make the pie the day before, cover it and keep it in the refrigerator, then add the whipped cream and Oreos right before serving. Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. To freeze, leave the topping off, wrap the pie in plastic wrap and freeze for up to 1 month. Thaw it in the refrigerator and add the topping before serving.
